in terms of deficit reduction everybody agrees that we have to reduce our deficit. just a matter of how. and president obama, most americans, believe that we should do it in balanced way. shouldn't do it on backs of seniors, on the backs of the middle class. we should make sure we're cutting what we don't need. president obama has already done that. there is more we can do. president obama thinks that people should pay their fair share. just like in the 90s when president clinton asked the wealthy to pay just a little bit more to invest in our economy, president obama believes the same thing. if that happens, then we can still invest in the things that we need to grow, like education, like infrastructure, like innovation. all of the things that put the economy on a strong foundation and let everybody prosper. martha: we'll hear all the details i assume about that tonight. i do want to ask you a little bit about what happened yesterday with this platform. it became revealed that god was not in the platform anymore. that jerusalem was not specifically stated as the ca
